There we go. Haier is now on my personal "do not ever buy from" list. Congratulations, Haier.

I'm so ready for this to end. Stop the madness already!

Consider "moissanite". Beautiful manufactured gemstones that look very much like diamonds but are a fraction of the price.

Exactly! I read some air fryer reviews and one of the reviews said the best air fryer is a convection toaster oven, so I thought, "well it's Costco and if I hate it I can return it and get an air fryer." I use this for so many things and almost every day. Reheating food is generally better in this than the microwave oven too.

A memory foam mattress topper. Mine is 8cm (3") thick and an absolute game changer. It goes on top of your existing mattress and under the fitted sheet.

I almost bought an air fryer, but ended up with a convection toaster oven. Does everything an air fryer does and much more. I bought the Gourmia one from Costco and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

After a few years on Spotify, I switched to Tidal.

Issues I had with Spotify are:

  1. You can't block a song, an artist or a band. Ridiculous really. For example, I dislike Kanye West and never want to hear his music, and blocking him on Tidal was easy.
  2. The Spotify shuffle algorithm is beyond terrible. If you have a 250 song playlist, you'll hear the same popular 50 songs and never the obscure ones. Sometimes even back-to-back. It's frustrating and they won't fix it. It seems to be their algorithm is designed to promote some artists or bands more than others.
  3. Spotify have promised higher quality audio for years and still haven't brought it out. With good headphones or speakers I can hear the difference that Tidal has.

I miss how well Spotify integrated with Google Home though.

Kanye West aka Ye is not a genius. He is a narcissist. He doesn't write most of his music because he has a team of employees that do that for him but he takes all of the credit. He deserves to be dropped because of his comments and statements.

To be clear, a car that uses either gasoline or diesel will have a lead acid battery and not a lithium battery. Electric cars have lithium. Just to clear up any confusion.

Don't ever trust a friend in business. Maybe it works out, maybe you almost lose everything.
